Top 11 White Sideboard/ Credenza/Console for Pamela

The other day I had a hilarious 7 minute lunch (not exaggerating)  at Sugarfish in LA with my new friend Pamela. She is on a vision quest for the perfect white credenza which looks divine on the outside and holds "a lot of crap" on the inside.  What I learned from this is that a Sideboard/ Credenza and Console all mean the same thing.

side·board/ˈsīdˌbôrd/

Noun: A flat-topped piece of furniture with cupboards and drawers, used for storing dishes, glasses, and table linen.

cre·den·za/krəˈdenzə/

Noun: A sideboard or cupboard.

con·sole/ˈkänsōl/

Noun: A panel or unit accommodating controls for electronic or mechanical equipment.

Good Manor

T Magazine ran this AMAZING story and I had to share!  Imagine taking a 23 acre proper manor and turning it into a chic modern family home.

FEAST ON THIS — At one end of Dinder House’s former ballroom, the dining area has a custom marquetry cabinet by Studio Job, a dining table by Ilse Crawford and Rody Graumans’s 85 Lamps chandelier for Droog. Photographs by Magnus Marding

Shocking foyer Makeover - You will LOVE it!



After Photo Donna Griffith

Update any space by painting out dark woodwork and replacing threadbare stair runners.

Hand-screened wallpaper in a monochromatic print makes a big statement in this front hallway. Painted woodwork instantly refreshes the room, while black stair treads and handrail play up the graphic black-and-white colour scheme. A weathered bench and low-hung art make a focal point under the stairs, while mini hexagonal floor tiles add texture.
